libvirt users - Jun 2011 - virsh slow on execution

Hi.

I've set up a Debian6+Xen4+libvirt0.9 server. VMs are going to be managed by
PaceMaker with VirtualDomain primitive.

As found on some mailing list I've set 
export VIRSH_DEFAULT_CONNECT_URI="xen:///"
in root's .bashrc, but when I run virsh commands, it takes up to 10s to get
the result!
Is this normal?
At some point today I had issues connecting to libvirt, and in this case it was
responding fast, less than couple of seconds.


Also, when I start a VM via OCF, while guest is booting the command 
virsh domstate mydom 
returns "no state". This makes PaceMaker believe the resource is not
running and continuously stops and restart the machine.

How can I speed up virsh output?
Thanks

I've let a shell open with virsh domstate mydom active in loop, and it seems
that it returns the correct state one time once very much requests! Say over 20
requests, only one or two says "idle" or "running", all the
others return "no state".
I'd like to know why virsh fails so many times returning correct state...
thanks
